INTRODUCTION
PDI’s major country focus is Burkina Faso, West Africa where it has established an effective Burkina-based team and a large regional tenement package mainly in the north-east of the country covering 1,605km[2] (Figure 1). The Company also holds four granted exploration permits in Cote D’Ivoire totalling 1,533km[2] (Figure 14) and an Exploration Licence in Victoria (Figure 15). PDI is now focused on exploration near the Bongou deposit in Burkina Faso to expand the resource inventory there. All other tenements have either been farmed out or are on offer to potential joint venture partners.
The Company’s tenement holding covers approximately 100km of strike length in the Samira Hill greenstone belt in eastern Burkina Faso (the Bonsiega permit group, Figure 1). This belt hosts the 2.5 million ounce Samira Hill gold deposit across the border in Niger and contains numerous active artisanal gold mine sites along its length. PDI now owns 100%, or has the rights to earn 95% to 100% of all its permits in Burkina Faso. PDI has discovered gold mineralisation on multiple prospects in Eastern Burkina Faso area during the past four years (Figure 1).

PROJECTS
Burkina Faso
Bonsiega Project
PDI’s focus in Burkina Faso is on the high-grade Bongou gold discovery (100% PDI, Figure 1) and the surrounding area. In September 2014, a formal Mineral Resource Estimate on Bongou resulted in 184,000oz of gold in the Inferred and Indicated Mineral Resource categories with an
2
==> picture [596 x 77] intentionally omitted <==
average grade of 2.6g/t Au, including 136,000oz at 3.8g/t Au (ASX release dated 4 September, 2014).
Bongou-Focused Exploration
PDI reviewed its exploration strategy in Burkina Faso in the second half of calendar 2014 and decided to focus all its efforts on finding sufficient open pittable gold resources near Bongou to support a profitable gold mine development.
Nearly 100 exploration targets near Bongou (Figure 2) were identified through a rigorous ranking process focused on prospects with Bongou-like geological and geophysical characteristics. Of these, 16 were prioritised for follow-up activities in the current field season (Figure 2). Most of these targets are traversed by strong east-west magnetic linear features, which also characterise both Bongou and known Bongou-style mineralisation within several kilometres of Bongou. Some targets have pre-existing drill intercepts (e.g. Prospect 71) but most are untested by previous drilling of any kind.

RC and Air Core Drill Program
A 3,854m drill program consisting of reverse circulation (RC) and limited air core drilling was carried out in May-June 2015. The program was conducted using a UDR650 drill rig with both RC and air core drill capabilities. The drilling tested nine targets in six different areas as follows:
Target 92 (see Figures 1 and 2 for location)
This prospect was identified as a high priority location in PDI’s Bonsiega rainy season project review in 2014. The target area overlaps a large area of surficial artisanal gold workings and coincides with a large east-west structure interpreted from magnetic data. PDI’s exploration around Bongou in 2014 showed that such east-west features may have controlled the location of gold mineralisation in this area.
Power auger drilling in March and April 2015 revealed a 3km long gold anomalous area at a 25ppb Au cut-off (Figure 3).
==> picture [404 x 160] intentionally omitted <==
Figure 3: Target 92 – 2015 drill locations (mauve diamonds) on satellite imagery background and 2015 power auger results. Power auger results were reported to the ASX on 24th April 2015 and 7th May 2015.
Shallow RC drilling was carried out on widely spaced cross sections, testing areas with better values in power auger drilling. Better intercepts included:
-
TBFRC004: 2m at 3.27g/t Au from 0m and 2m at 2.03g/t Au from 10m.
-
TBFRC010: 3m at 3.91g/t Au from 17m, including 1m at 10.75g/t Au (last metre drilled).
-
TBFRC011: 9m at 2.83g/t Au from 4m, including 1m at 11.80g/t Au.

Figure 4: Target 92 – cross section through the encouraging TBFRC010 and TBFRC011 drill intercepts.
The better mineralisation intersected in holes TBRC010 and TBRC011 is hosted within gabbro on the margins of steeply dipping diorite bodies (Figure 4). This is an interesting new style of mineralisation with some geological similarities to Bongou. The zone is open in all directions, including for at least 600m along strike to the east and west. The presence of higher grades in both holes is certainly encouraging. The mineralisation will be followed up with drilling along strike and at depth in the next program.
Prospect 71 (see Figures 1 and 2 for location)
This prospect lies near the northern edge of a large gold geochemical anomaly covering 2.4km[2] (Figure 5). Close spaced power auger drilling and ground magnetic surveys in early 2015 revealed two sub-parallel NW striking structures within the broader anomaly. Of these, the southern zone contains a series of strongly anomalous power auger values including 4.7g/t Au and 1.8g/t Au (ASX releases dated 20 February 2015 and 24 April 2015).
The 2015 drilling program (Figure 5), totalling 911m, was designed to test both of the targeted structures. The best results were obtained in a cross section through the southern zone (Figure 6), and included:
-
PSORC056: 6m at 2.25g/t Au from 19m, including 1m at 6.80g/t Au . Stopped in gold mineralisation
-
PSORC058: 4m at 3.32g/t Au from 10m, including 1m at 9.22g/t Au.
-
PSORC060: 14m at 0.84g/t Au from 0m, including 3m at 2.70g/t Au.
This drilling showed a clearly defined shallow dipping gold mineralised zone, which correlates well from hole to hole (Figure 6). The mineralisation appears to strike NW. Drilling on a parallel section 110m to the SE revealed several similar, sub-parallel shallowly dipping zones, including 5m at 1.09g/t Au and 24m at 0.47g/t Au in hole PSORC051 (Figure 5). This mineralisation appears to correlate with the mineralisation drilled in PSORC056, indicating that this newly discovered gold zone is open to the south-east.

Figure 5 Location of 2015 drill holes at Prospect 71 (mauve diamonds) on satellite imagery, showing also location and results of earlier power auger and 2012 RC drilling (these results were first reported to the ASX in PDI’s September 2011, June 2012 and March 2015 Quarterly Reports. The pre-2015 results were prepared and first disclosed under the JORC Code 2004; they have not been updated since to comply with the JORC Code 2012 on the basis that the information has not materially changed since it was last reported).
The dip and strike of the newly discovered mineralisation is entirely new for the area and provides a possible explanation for the wide area of gold anomalism at Prospect 71. Earlier drilling was designed to test at right angles to steep dipping, NNE-striking mineralised structures mapped in artisanal mining workings. It is now clear that the earlier drill lines were not optimally oriented. Despite this, several gold intercepts were obtained from the earlier drilling, most notably PSORC030 which contained 4m at 7.02g/t Au from 20m[1] . This suggests that there is ample opportunity to discover more zones of similar, shallow-dipping gold mineralisation within the Prospect 71 anomaly.
1 These results were first reported to the ASX on 23rd May2012, and were prepared and first disclosed under the JORC Code 2004. They have not been updated since to comply with the JORC Code 2012 on the basis that the information has not materially changed since it was last reported.

Bongou (See Figure 7 for location)
Bongou W2
This target is located 600m from Bongou where PDI has reported a high-grade Indicated and Inferred Resource of 184,000oz at 2.6g/t Au (reported to the ASX on 4[th] September 2014). The W2 target was initially identified by power auger drilling in 2013 and followed up with trenching. In 2014, a single RC hole intersected 12m at 1.4 g/t Au (reported to the ASX on 1[st] April 2014).
Three additional RC holes, totalling 241m, were drilled on section lines approximately 50m apart, with the following results:
-
BNGRC025: 2m at 3.40g/t Au from 10m, including 1m at 6.17g/t Au.
-
BNGRC026: 9m at 1.27g/t Au , including 1m at 5.22g/t Au .
-
BNGRC027: 21m at 0.98g/t Au , including 8m at 1.57g/t Au .
This drilling showed that the mineralisation is open to the west in what appears to be an ENE trending shear zone cutting through the granite. Geological interpretation based on power auger drilling through thin cover indicates that the inferred shear zone is likely to persist to the WSW within granite for at least 150m (Figure 8). The mineralisation dips almost vertically indicating good down-dip continuity (Figure 9).

Bongou W8
This target is located 2km WNW of Bongou (Figure 7). It coincides with a 60m long artisanal open pit working and gold anomalous values in power auger drilling and trenches. Four RC holes, totalling 341m, were drilled on section lines approximately 50m apart, with the following best results:
-
BNGRC023: 8m at 1.65g/t Au from 18m, including 1m at 5.26g/t Au .
-
BNGRC024: 8m at 0.72g/t Au from 40m, including 3m at 1.51g/t Au .
The BNGRC023 is located on the westernmost drill line and the mineralised zone is therefore open to the west and at depth.
Bongou Other
Two holes approximately 50m apart were drilled at Bongou W7 and one hole was drilled southwest of the Bongou open pit. None of these holes contained a reportable gold intersection.
9
==> picture [596 x 77] intentionally omitted <==
Targets 4, 11 and 75 (see Figures 2, 11 and 12 for drill hole locations)
RC drilling, totalling 1,320m, at these three locations identified:
-
Target 11: anomalous gold in 8 out of 12 holes, including:
-
LATRC057: 7m at 1.34g/t Au from 8m, including 4m at 2.05g/t Au , and
-
LATRC059: 2m at 2.10g/t Au from 7m.
-
Target 75: anomalous gold in 4 out of 11 holes but with no results exceeding 1g/t Au.
-
Target 4: a large, Bongou-like altered granite zone with disseminated sulphides and probably extending over more than 500m of strike length but with no anomalous gold values.
Power Auger Drill Program
One power auger drilling program, totalling 471 holes and 2,073m was completed in the June Quarter. The drilling was designed both to test several new prospects (Targets 47 and 75) and infill drill around the better previous auger results in preparation for the subsequent RC/air core drilling program. The holes were designed to collect sample at the “interface” between superficial material (e.g. soil or alluvium) and weathered bedrock. The samples were assayed at the SGS laboratory in Ouagadougou.
Encouraging gold values were recorded from three prospects. Peak values of 1.5g/t Au, 1.4g/t Au and 0.7g/t Au were obtained from Target 92, Target 11 and Target 75 respectively.
Target 92
Target 92 was identified as a high priority location in PDI’s Bonsiega rainy season project review in 2014. The target area overlaps a large area of surficial artisanal gold workings and coincides with a large east-west structure. PDI’s exploration around Bongou in 2014 showed that large east-west structures may control the location of gold mineralisation in this area.
Power auger drilling in March 2015 revealed a large gold anomalous area at a 25ppb Au cut-off extending the full 2.8km length of the grid over a width of between 200m and 600m (Figure 3). Within this zone, there are multiple areas with values above 50ppb Au. Infill drilling in the June Quarter obtained encouraging gold values on most infill lines including 1465ppb Au , 777ppb Au , 707ppb Au and 489ppb Au (Figure 3). The infill results also confirmed line to line continuity at the 50ppb Au level, especially on the T92-South anomaly in the south-eastern part of the grid where the subsequent RC drilling was mainly focused (Figure 3).
Target 11
This target was selected on the basis of a significant east-west cross structure intersecting a major ENE trending fault zone. The June Quarter power auger drilling program obtained encouraging
10
==> picture [596 x 77] intentionally omitted <==
values including 1,395ppb Au and 1,130ppb Au (Figure 11). These results were considered sufficiently encouraging to warrant follow-up RC drilling (see previous report section).
==> picture [381 x 220] intentionally omitted <==
Figure 11: Target 11 – power auger geochemical results and 2015 drill locations (mauve diamonds).
Target 75
This target was selected on the basis of another prominent east-west cross structure intersecting the Dave mineralised fault trend. The June Quarter power auger drilling program obtained encouraging values including 679ppb Au (Figure 12). These results were considered sufficiently encouraging to warrant follow-up RC drilling (see previous report section).

Target 47
Power auger drilling at Target 47 resulted in relatively low order gold values and no indications of continuity from line to line. The highest value was 95ppb Au (Figure 13). No further work is planned at this location.

Planned Exploration Activities September 2015 Quarter – Burkina Faso
The rainy season has now commenced and only limited field work can be carried out during the September Quarter. The work focus will be on assessing the exploration results of the recent field season and calculating an Exploration Target over all prospects within 10km of Bongou in which there is good evidence of gold mineralisation continuity.
Côte d’Ivoire
Cote D’Ivoire Background
PDI holds four highly prospective exploration permits in Cote D’Ivoire: Kokumbo, Ferkessedougou, Boundiali and Kounahiri, covering a total area of 1,533km[2] - Kokumbo, Ferkessedougou, Boundiali and Kounahiri (Figure 14). These permits were selected by a country-wide analysis of geophysical and geological data. The Kokumbo permit has a gold soil anomaly covering 1 km[2] close to the historic Kokumbo mine with many values exceeding 1g/t Au, historical drill results of up to 3m at 12g/t Au and historic trench results of up to 64g/t Au.
12
==> picture [596 x 77] intentionally omitted <==
PDI’s exploration to date has included geological mapping, ground magnetics surveying and bulk leach extractable gold (BLEG) stream sediment sampling. High priority exploration targets have been identified on all four exploration permits.

Joint Venture with Toro Gold Limited
PDI announced to the ASX that it had signed a Heads of Agreement (HOA) with Toro Gold Limited (Toro) on the Company’s entire Cote D’Ivoire ground holding on 22[nd] September 2014. Under the terms of this agreement, Toro can earn a 51% interest in Predictive Discovery Cote D’Ivoire SARL (PDCI), which holds the Company’s interest in the four permits, by spending US$1 million.
US$200,000 payment to PDI
On 19[th] June, 2015, the Company announced that Toro had transferred US$200,000 (approximately A$260,000) to Predictive. The payment was made following resolution of several conditions precedent in a detailed Shareholder Subscription Agreement which was executed by both parties earlier this year.
Work Programs
13
==> picture [596 x 77] intentionally omitted <==
Work completed so far has consisted of geological mapping, rock chip and large soil sampling programs on the Kokoumbo and Boundiali exploration permits (Figure 14). This work is expected to continue during the September Quarter. Results are awaited and will be released to the ASX when they are received.
Australia
Cape Clear EL 5434, Victoria
Exploration Licence 5434 is located west of Ballarat in Victoria (Figure 15). It was granted to PDI in August 2013. The area is highly prospective for shallowly concealed Stawell-style gold mineralisation. PDI has previously carried out geological mapping and a gravity survey over part of the EL area.
Execution of a binding joint venture agreement with Cape Clear Minerals Pty Ltd (CCM) on this EL was announced to the ASX on 22[nd] September 2014. CCM can earn 75% equity in the licence by spending $500,000 on exploration, including at least 1,000m of drilling prior to the end of the September Quarter 2015.
CCM carried out the following work during the March Quarter:
-
Limited geological mapping and rock chip sampling
-
Design of a three hole, 1,000m drilling program. Permission to drill the holes was sought and obtained from the Victorian Mines Department.
Drilling is planned to commence in August, 2015, weather permitting.

| Sampling Technique |
Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut channels, random chips, or specific specialised industry standard measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under investigation, such as downhole gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc). These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used. Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report. In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been done this would be relatively simple (eg ‘reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay’). In other cases more explanation may be required, such as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (eg submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailedinformation. |
All of the sampling described in this report refers to either reverse circulation (RC) drill samples or air core (AC) drill samples. Both methods were used to obtain either 4m or1 m samples were obtained, and from each of which 2 kg was pulverised to produce a 50 g charge for fire assay. In the first place, all holes were composite sampled using a soil scoop plunged into each sample bag. Composite samples usually consisted of 4m each. At the same time, riffle splitting of each 1m interval was employed to produce representative one metre samples, each of 2kg. The riffle split 1m samples from the composite scoop samples which returned higher gold values (generally >0.5g/t Au) were re-assayed to ensure that more representative samples of the mineralised intercepts of potential economic interest had been assayed. The drill samples are judged to be representative of the rock being drilled because representative sub-sampling of both the RC and air core samples was achieved. |

| Drill Sample Recovery |
Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries and results assessed. Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and ensure representative nature of the samples. Whether a relationship exists between sample recovery and grade and whether sample bias may have occurred due to preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse material. |
Sample recovery was estimated for all samples. RC recoveries were estimated by weighing the samples and estimating the recovery based on the likely in situ density of the material and the known volume of the drill hole Sample recovery was maximised in the RC drilling by use of a face sampling hammer. |

| Logging | Whether core and chip samples have been geologically and geotechnical logged to a level of detail to support appropriate Mineral Resource estimation, mining studies and metallurgical studies. Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature. Core (or costean/Trench, channel, etc) photography. The total length and percentage of the relevant intersections logged. |
Detailed geological logging has been carried out on all drill samples, recording lithology, weathering, structure, veining and/or mineralisation, grainsize and colour. Logging of sulphide mineralization and veining is quantitative. No judgement has yet been made by independent qualified consultants on whether the geological and geotechnical logging has been sufficient to support Mineral Resource estimation, mining and metallurgical studies. |
| Sub-Sampling Technique and Sample Preparation |
If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter, half or all core taken. If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary split, etc and whether sampled wet or dry. For all sample types, the nature, quality and appropriateness of the sample preparation technique. Quality control procedures adopted for all sub-sampling stages to maximise representivity of samples. Measures taken to ensure that the sampling is representative of the in situ material collected, including for instance results for field duplicate/second-half sampling. Whether sample sizes are appropriate to the grain size of the material being sampled. |
An on-site riffle splitter was employed to produce a 2kg assay sample for submission to SGS. Either one or two reference riffle-split 2kg samples are retained from the RC samples for future re-assay or metallurgical testwork. The sampling (and analytical) methods were appropriate for the style of mineralisation, especially as no visible gold has been observed. |

| Quality of Assay Data and Laboratory Tests |
The nature, quality and appropriateness of the assaying and laboratory procedures used and whether the technique is considered partial or total. For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheld XRF instruments, etc, the parameters used in determining the analysis including instrument make and model, reading times, calibrations factors applied and their derivation, etc. Nature of quality control procedures adopted (eg standards, blanks, duplicates, external laboratory checks) and whether acceptable levels of accuracy (ie lack of bias) and precision have been established. |
All samples were assayed for gold by 50g fire assay at the SGS laboratory in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. The technique is considered a total analysis. No geophysical tools, spectrometers or handheld XRF instruments have yet been employed. Unlabelled standards, blank and duplicate samples were submitted with all assay batches, generally at the rate of one standard every 15thsample. Where any problems with bias or accuracy, especially outside of a +/- 10% envelope is observed, samples are re-assayed. External laboratory checks are planned but have not yet been carried out. |

| Verification of Sampling and Assaying |
The verification of significant intersections by either independent or alternative company personnel. The use of twinned holes The verification of significant intersections by either independent or alternative company personnel. Discuss any adjustment to assay data |
No holes have yet been twinned. Field data collection is undertaken by the company’s Burkina Faso-based geologists. All results are checked by Mr Paul Roberts, the company’s Managing Director. |
| Location of Data points |
Accuracy and quality of surveysused tolocate drill holes (collar and down- hole surveys), trenches, mine workings and other locations used in Mineral Resource estimation. Specification of the grid system used Quality and adequacy of topographic control |
Collar positions were located using a hand held GPS with a location error of +/- 3m. Collar coordinates listed in the table are for Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM), Datum WGS 84, Zone 31 - Northern Hemisphere. |
| Data Spacing and Distribution |
Data spacing for reporting of Exploration Results Whether the data spacing and distribution is sufficient to establish the degree of geological and grade continuity appropriate for the Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimation procedure(s) and classifications applied. Whether sample compositing has beenapplied |
The drill intercepts are irregularly spaced. Drill spacing along lines was “heel to toe” i.e. the hole collar spacing was designed such that the bottom of each hole would be approximately below the collar of the next hole – in order to provide complete drill coverage. For example, this would generally mean that 20m long 60 degree angled holes would have collars spaced 20m apart. Given that this was a reconnaissance program, drill line spacings were very variable – from 50m to 600m. No judgement has yet been made by an independent qualified consultant on whether the drill density is sufficient to calculate a Mineral Resource. Sample compositing was applied as described elsewhere in this table. |
| Orientation of Data in Relation to Geological Structure |
Whether the orientation of sampling achieves unbiased sampling of possible structures and the extent to which this is known, considering the deposit type. If the relationship between the drilling orientation and the orientation of key mineralised structures is considered to have introduced a sampling bias, this should be assessed and reported if material. |
All drill holes reported here were drilled approximately at right angles to the anticipated strike of the target mineralization. In most prospects, the target mineralisation lies under cover. For this reason, there is a risk that the drill orientation was not optimal.t |

The large RC sample bags are stored at a sample farm on PDI’s exploration permits. These are guarded by local individuals hired for this purpose. 2kg reference samples are stored at the company’s field camp in the town of Gayeri, which is guarded 24 hours per day. Pulp samples are retained at company premises in Ouagadougou which are also guarded 24 hours perday. |

The locations reported here lie within the Sirba Permit (Arrêté N°2014/14/296/MCE/SG/DGMGC) which covers an area of 137 sq km, Madyabari Permit (Arrêté N°2014/14/295/MCE/SG/DGMGC) which covers an area of 172 sq km and the Basieri permit (Arrete No. 2013- 16/MCE/SG/DGMGC ) which covers an area of 73.5 sq km. There are no overriding reserves or national parks over this permit. In a future mining operation, the Government of Burkina Faso is entitled to a 10% share of any mine along with a 3-5% ad valorem royalty, the percentage of which is determined by the gold price prevailing at the time. The company believes that (a) the permit is securely held as it has complied with all the necessary government requirements and (b) the permit can be replaced in due course by a mining licence as long as a feasibility study shows that a future mine would be viable and that company completes meets the Government’s legal requirements, which it fully intends to do.. The Sirba and Madyabari permits were initially acquired, along with two other nearby permits (Fouli and Tantiabongou), by Birrimian Pty Ltd (Birrimian), which is a British Virgin Islands-registered company now 100% owned by PDI. The original owners of Birrimian subsequently entered into an agreement with Eldore Mining Corporation Limited (Eldore) through which Eldore could acquire the Birrimian permits through a series of payments and a commitment to issue US$2 million worth of Eldore stock on completion of a Bankable Feasibility Study on one or more ore deposits within the Birrimian permits. PDI initially acquired an interest in Sirba and Madyabari along with the two other Birrimian permits via a joint venture with Eldore which commenced in January 2010. In 2012, Eldore changed its name to Stratos Resources Limited (ASX: SAT) after which PDI bought out SAT’s residual interest (in late 2012). In acquiring Birrimian, PDI also inherited the one unfulfilled commitment in the original Eldore agreement with the original Birrimian shareholders. This commitment has now been agreed to mean that PDI will issue US$2 million worth of PDI shares after PDI accepts an offer of finance for development of a mine on the Birrimian permits at its sole discretion) following completion of a Bankable Feasibility Study.

Mineralisation is variable across the various prospects tested in this drill program, and consists of albite-silica altered granite containing disseminated pyrite near Bongou and weathered and (presumably) altered sheared gabbro elsewhere.

| Data Aggregation Methods |
In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (eg cutting of high grades) and cut-off grades are usually Material and should be stated. Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high grade results and longer lengths of low grade results, the procedure used for such aggregation should be stated and some typical examples of such aggregations should be shown in detail. The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearly stated. |
Over 95% of the gold mineralised material (with grades exceeding 0.5g/t Au) was sampled in intervals of one meter or less. No top cuts have been applied to exploration results as the maximum value in the entire assay database is 12g/t Au. Up to 4m (down-hole) of internal waste is included. Mineralised intervals are reported on a weighted average basis. |
| Relationship Between Mineralisation Widths and Intercept Lengths |
These relationships are particularly important in the reporting of Exploration Results If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill hole angle is known, its nature should be reported. If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported, there should be a clear statement to this effect (eg ‘down hole length, true width not known’). |
True widths have been estimated for all intercepts based on geological interpretation of the drill results and/or what seem to be the most logical correlation of gold values from hole to hole. |
| Diagrams | Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and tabulations of intercepts should be included for any significant discovery being reported These should include, but not be limited to a plan view of drill hole collar locations and appropriate sectional views. |
Appropriate plans and cross sections are included in the text of this document. |
| Balanced Reporting | Where comprehensive reporting of all Exploration Results is not practicable, representative reporting of both low and high grades and/or widths should be practiced to avoid misleading reporting of Exploration Results. |
All intercepts containing average gold grades exceeding 2g-m (e.g. 1 g/t Au over a down-hole width of 2m) are reported. Holes in which no significant result has been obtained are also routinely reported by PDI. |
| Other Substantive Exploration Data |
Other exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be reported including (but not limited to): geological observations; geophysical survey results; geochemical survey results; bulk samples – size and method of treatment; metallurgical test results; |

| Notes: Power auger drilling is a reconnaissance exploration technique. Typically the last metre of each auger hole represents in situ material. PDI’s practice is to collect an interface sample over approximately 1m which is therefore generally the second last metre of each drill hole. Consequently, results are presented in Figure 1 of this announcement are mostly for the second last metre drilled for each auger hole. Individual drill hole intersections are not reported in this announcement. The average RL over the grid is 278m. The area is mostly a flat plain with very little variation between adjacent holes; individual RLs are not reported in this announcement because theyare not relevant to interpreting geochemical data of this type. |

| Sampling Technique |
Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut channels, random chips, or specific specialised industry standard measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under investigation, such as downhole gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc). These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used. Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report. In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been done this would be relatively simple (eg ‘reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay’). In other cases more explanation may be required, such as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (eg submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailedinformation. |
The sampling described in this report refers to power auger drill samples samples. In all the power auger drill holes reported here, 1-2kg samples were collected at the interface between soil and weathered bedrock. Results from holes where the drill hole did not penetrate through to weathered bedrock are not reported here as they are not considered an effective geochemical test of these locations because of the abundance of transported material overlying the bedrock. The samples were collected for gold assaying at the SGS laboratory in Ouagadougou using an aqua regia method with a 1ppb detection limit. |

| Drill Sample Recovery |
Method of recording and assessing core and chip sample recoveries and results assessed. Measures taken to maximise sample recovery and ensure representative nature of the samples. Whether a relationship exists between sample recovery and grade and whether sample bias may have occurred due to preferential loss/gain of fine/coarse material. |
Sample recovery is not assessed for power auger drilling as it is a geochemical method. In general, however, recoveries are good because the hole has to be cleared by the screw-type rods in order for the drill rods to advance downwards. |
| Logging | Whether core and chip samples have been geologically and geotechnical logged to a level of detail to support appropriate Mineral Resource estimation, mining studies and metallurgical studies. Whether logging is qualitative or quantitative in nature. Core (or costean/Trench, channel, etc) photography. The total length and percentage of the relevant intersections logged. |
None of these samples will be used in a Mineral Resource estimation. Nonetheless, all power auger holes were geologically logged in a qualitative fashion. |
| Sub-Sampling Technique and Sample Preparation |
If core, whether cut or sawn and whether quarter, half or all core taken. If non-core, whether riffled, tube sampled, rotary split, etc and whether sampled wet or dry. For all sample types, the nature, quality and appropriateness of the sample preparation technique.

For geophysical tools, spectrometers, handheld XRF instruments, etc, the parameters used in determining the analysis including instrument make and model, reading times, calibrations factors applied and their derivation, etc. Nature of quality control procedures adopted (eg standards, blanks, duplicates, external laboratory checks) and whether acceptable levels of accuracy (ie lack of bias) and precision have been established. |
The analytical method used was an SGS aqua regia method with a low detection limit (1ppb) which is appropriate for a geochemical drilling program. A limited number of external standards and blanks were included with the submitted samples. Based on these results and SGS’s own repeat results, the analytical results are judged to be suitable for distinguishing gold anomalous samples from barren samples. |

Predictive Discovery Limited (PDI) was established in late 2007 and listed on the ASX in December 2010. The Company is focused on exploration for gold in West Africa. The Company’s major focus is in Burkina Faso, West Africa where it has assembled a substantial regional ground position totalling 1,605km[2] and is exploring for large open-pittable gold deposits. Exploration in eastern Burkina Faso has yielded a large portfolio of exciting gold prospects, including the Bongou trend where a series of high-grade gold drill intercepts have been obtained recently. PDI also has interests in a strategic portfolio of tenements in Côte D’Ivoire covering a total area of 1,533 km[2] .
